bova ball

My favorite omni microphone. A spherical omni mic like if your head was mono… Totally amazing for anything where an omni is appropriate, and even some jobs where it really isn’t, because the spherical thing makes certain frequencies more directional than others…. incredible on many sources. I have earthworks TC30k’s that I still love, but the bova really is more musical and completely one of the most “open” microphones I own. Just amazing at any price, but totally affordable to boot!
